None of the chats I see to date address a true correction; has this been corrected?
Haven't spotted an updated version for macOS fixing the Attached Device map.
I don't understand what 'fising the Attached Device map' means. Is Netgear working on a solve for this issue?
Typo fixed above.

Most active community people are not working on behalf of Netgear - go figure...
It would be nice if they chimed in to let people know that they understand that an issue is detected and then let people know that they're working on a fix so we don't keep chasing our tails. Just old fashioned good customer service would be nice.
- I am original poster and I have been working with Netgear support but as of today there has been no solution to the device map problem. They see no problem using a R7000 router in their lab and they sent me a new replacement but that still did not fix the problem in my situation. The case number is still open for now. Hopefully more trouble shooting this week.
It's not a specific router model or router firmware problem - both the macOS Genie as well as the Windows Genie are building the Attached Device map partially independent of the existence of any Netgear router - complete odd design. Same issue with an R9000 (1.0.4.12) serving the Internet connection for example, and many more combinations.
